RSNA Exhibit “Identified for RadioGraphics”
Jennifer Xiao, MD, PGY-5, (Co-Chief Resident 2020-21) received the honor of her first-author publication as the front page article in Radiology! She and her co-author resident Larry Cai, MD, PGY-5, are pictured here with mentors Achille Mileto, MD, Assistant Professor and Director of Computed Tomography, and Giuseppe Toia, MD, Abdominal Imaging Fellow, Resident Class of 2020, when they attended the SCBT-MR annual meeting in 2018.
Funds from the Rohrmann Endowment support residents who present (even virtually!) at national radiology meetings in 2021:
Although many meetings continue to be virtual, that does not stop the UW Radiology residents from submitting their excellent work. Two upcoming presentations that received support from the Rohrmann Endowment are featured here.
Andrew Woerner, MD, PGY-3 IR Resident
Andrew’s Educational Exhibit will be presented at the ARRS Virtual Annual Meeting in April 2021
Marissa Lawson, MD, PGY-5, will be presenting a scientific paper at the AUR 69th Annual Meeting in May: “Multi-level Factors leading to Delays in Time to Tissue Diagnosis after Abnormal Screening Mammography.” Congratulations to Marissa!
Spotlighting UW Radiology Resident alums brings a familiar face to many, with insights and “fun facts.” In this edition, featured is Dr. Habib Rahbar, Associate Professor and Clinical Director of Breast Imaging at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. Dr. Rahbar was a UW Radiology resident class of 2010, followed by a fellowship in breast imaging at UW Radiology. He has been on faculty since 2011.
Spring is a time of changes – and the UW Radiology residency will soon be welcoming in a fresh class of residents: Match Day 2021 is March 19, 2021. Featured below are the incoming Chief Residents for 2021-22
A resource that continues to be of great value to trainees is the online interactive atlas of human anatomy published by IMAIOS, e-Anatomy. This great tool has been supported by funds from the Rohrmann Endowment for the past two years. You can read the Thank You letter from the Radiation Oncology Residency on page 8 of the Newsletter.

Shout-out to UW Radiology Donors –
In early April, we challenged all to join in honoring Dr. Charles Rohrmann in recognition of his 45+ years of service at UW Radiology. We envisioned early and regular supporters who have always responded generously to share in this special recognition challenge. Collectively, you exceeded our aspirations. Of the more than 150 alumni, faculty, staff, and friends who responded with donations, many were first-time donors. Countless other supporters contributed with their time and energy, conveying heartfelt memories of working with Dr. Rohrmann. This was a testament that every gift has significance. As a collective, raising more than $966,000 over ten years is truly inspiring.
While reaching close to the $1 million goal has allowed us to significantly increase our impact, there is still much more to be done as new initiatives surrounding Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (see more below) have brought to light more opportunities to engage with medical students and develop programs to attract underrepresented students to the field of Radiology. We encourage each of you to continue deepening your partnership with the Endowment and other funding outreach opportunities to continue the mission towards Radiology Resident Educational Excellence.

Publication of a first-author research project by Lisa Johnson, MD, PGY-4, in Radiology Case Reports was a worthy recipient of funds from the McGoodwin Endowment. You can read about her experience on page 6 of the Fall 2020 Newsletter.
Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion: UW Radiology Chief Resident for Diversity
Conversations have sparked and committees have been formed to help address Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) with the goal of achieving the four aims presented by our underrepresented trainees:
- Increase Awareness about the challenges that underrepresented minority (URM) trainees face daily both at work and outside of work. Understanding how inequality influences the URM experience.
- Change Perceptions by actively challenging the perception that “different” means “deficient.” Understanding that equity should be the goal, not simply equality.
- Active Engagement by conscientious efforts to remain aware of and actively address issues that URM trainees may be facing.
- Increase Retention through a concerted effort to retain URM trainees as faculty, as well as recruit URM faculty.
– Segen Aklilu, MD, PGY-5, UW Radiology Chief Resident for Diversity (Read about this new initiative on page 7 of the Fall 2020 Newsletter.
Fifth Annual Doug Green Memorial Hike – Wallace Falls
Doug Green was an enthusiastic educator and an avid outdoorsman, hiking throughout the Pacific Northwest and spending the winter months in his beloved Utah skiing rugged backcountry slopes. Each year, Doug’s love of nature has inspired UW Radiology residents and faculty to get outdoors and hike in his memory. This year, it was a trip to Wallace Falls, a lovely hike nestled in a Central Cascades river valley.
